A very nasty bug were happening on edac core, due to the way mci objects are
freed. mci memory is freed when kobject count reaches zero, by
edac_mci_control_release(). However, from the logs, this is clearly happening
before the final usage of mci struct:

There are two groups of sysfs attributes: one for rdimm and another
for udimm. Instead of changing dynamically the unique static struct
for handling udimm's, declare two vars and make them constant.
This avoids the risk of having two or more memory controllers, each
needing a different set of attributes.
While here, use const on all places where it is applicable.

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Constify struct sysfs_ops.
This is part of the ops structure constification
effort started by Arjan van de Ven et al.
Benefits of this constification:
* prevents modification of data that is shared
(referenced) by many other structure instances
at runtime
* detects/prevents accidental (but not intentional)
modification attempts on archs that enforce
read-only kernel data at runtime
* potentially better optimized code as the compiler
can assume that the const data cannot be changed
* the compiler/linker move const data into .rodata
and therefore exclude them from false sharing

The channel DIMM label does not seem to be used much in the edac code.
However, where it is used (in the core code), it is assumed to not have a
newline embedded. This leaves the sysfs file newline free which looks
funny when cat'ing it. Here we just add the trailing newline to the sysfs
chX_dimm_label output...
[Doug Thompson note: the DIMM label is one of the primary uses of EDAC.
User space daemon scripts, edac-utils@sourceforge, populate the DIMM label
fields, via /sys/devices/system/edac attributes, with the silk screen
labels of the motherboard in use. dmidecode access BIOS tables, but BIOS
tables are well known to be incorrect and useless in these respects.
edac-utils will strip off any newlines before its use of the output, when
displaying DIMM slot silk screen labels.

When updating the edac_mc_poll_msec module parameter from the sysfs

Here we provide a new module parameter set method to call out to the
update routine. This brings the /sys/module/edac_core/parameters
functionality up to that provided by the /sys/drivers/system/edac/mc sysfs
module parameter files so that we can remove them or at least link to the

This fixes a deadlock that could occur on a 'setup' and 'teardown' sequence of
the workq for a edac_mc control structure instance. A similiar fix was
previously implemented for the edac_device code.
In addition, the edac_mc device code there was missing code to allow the workq
period valu to be altered via sysfs control.
This patch adds that fix on the code, and allows for the changing of the
period value as well.

This patch refactors the 'releasing' of kobjects for the edac_mc type of
device. The correct pattern of kobject release is followed.
As internal kobjs are allocated they bump a ref count on the top level kobj.
It in turn has a module ref count on the edac_core module. When internal
kobjects are released, they dec the ref count on the top level kobj. When the
top level kobj reaches zero, it decrements the ref count on the edac_core
object, allow it to be unloaded, as all resources have all now been released.

This patch adds the new 'class' of object to be managed, named: 'edac_device'.
As a peer of the 'edac_mc' class of object, it provides a non-memory centric
view of an ERROR DETECTING device in hardware. It provides a sysfs interface
and an abstraction for varioius EDAC type devices.
Multiple 'instances' within the class are possible, with each 'instance'
able to have multiple 'blocks', and each 'block' having 'attributes'.
At the 'block' level there are the 'ce_count' and 'ue_count' fields
which the device driver can update and/or call edac_device_handle_XX()
functions. At each higher level are additional 'total' count fields,
which are a summation of counts below that level.
This 'edac_device' has been used to capture and present ECC errors
which are found in a a L1 and L2 system on a per CORE/CPU basis.

This is a large patch to refactor the original EDAC module in the kernel
and to break it up into better file granularity, such that each source
file contains a given subsystem of the EDAC CORE.
Originally, the EDAC 'core' was contained in one source file: edac_mc.c
with it corresponding edac_mc.h file.
Now, there are the following files:
edac_module.c The main module init/exit function and other overhead
edac_mc.c Code handling the edac_mc class of object
edac_mc_sysfs.c Code handling for sysfs presentation
edac_pci_sysfs.c Code handling for PCI sysfs presentation
edac_core.h CORE .h include file for 'edac_mc' and 'edac_device' drivers
edac_module.h Internal CORE .h include file
This forms a foundation upon which a later patch can create the 'edac_device'
class of object code in a new file 'edac_device.c'.
